Welcome from the Principal On behalf of the Govenors, the Senior Team and the community of Sir John Deane’s Sixth Form College, I am delighted to welcome you to our annual evening of recognition and celebration.

Individuals have excelled academically, some have exhibited impressive sporting prowess and endurance, whilst others have overcome personal challenges to become bolder and more resilient as a result.

We celebrate the tremendous breadth and range of student achievement and we seek to recognise those individuals who have become role models and heroes.

This evening is also an opportunity for us to thank parents, families and friends, whose love, faith and support underpins the success and achievements of all the winners this evening.

I share your pride and I hope that you all have a wonderful evening.

Kerry Kirkwood, Principal
